Babel

When God confused the speech of the builders of the Tower of Babel, He said, ‘In this world, by reason of the evil inclination, my creatures are at variance; they are divided into seventy tongues. But in the world to come they will all be equal.  All with one accord will call upon my name and serve me, as it says, “For then will I restore to the nations one pure tongue that they may call, all of them, upon the name of the Lord and serve Him unanimously."    -Tanhuma, Noah

May the day come when we serve God by treating Him with reverence and one another with respect.

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
